Amy Proal and Trevor Marshall - blecch!

Is it worth mentioning that bacteriality.com is one of the sites whose purpose is to promote the Marshall Protocol?  Or that Amy Proal is a still-wet-behind-the-ears Georgetown grad with a BA in biology who is also a hired shill for Marshall?  Almost all of her articles either promote his protocol or else point to it and that has been the case since her senior thesis "Chronic Fatigue and the Marshall Protocol".  As such, I have to view anything she writes as self serving and worthy of questioning.

It is good to hear that you don't advocate Marshall's protocol.  His background is not impressive at all when it comes to medical science and his past includes some very questionable episodes.  Trevor Marshall is often mis-identified as a biochemist, while in reality he is an electrical engineer with a somewhat shady background.  See:

As one article skeptical of Marshall noted, his views that people should avoid vitamin D and avoid sunlight run counter to the overwhelming bulk of qualified opinion.  None of his theories about vitamin D have been proven in vitro, and especially not in vivo.  Sometimes a lone wolf who turns out to be against the overwhelming tide of opinions and evidence to the contrary is correct, but I don't think Marshall is such a wolf.

Wolves don't quack.
